Day 265 - Wednesday, March 22, 2017
 We had our Zone Interviews in Camiling.  This was a zone where we visited each of the houses.  In the middle of our interviews, we stopped for some interviews with President Clark.  This is a picture with two sisters that are going on missions.  They were able to receive a temple recommend.  The wiser (and a bit older) sister came for a temple recommend interview as well.  This sister is armed with an umbrella for very good reason. The weather in the Philippines right now is HOT!  Today was about 106 degrees real feel. This cute lady walks everywhere she goes.  To walk to the church is over 2 km's.  When she walked in she looked fresher than me.  I had been in warm homes of our missionaries just sitting and looked like a drenched rat.  This sister walked in after her walk and looked as fresh and cute as could be.  The Branch President was here to make sure the tagalog and english team worked properly.  President Clark is a pro at giving the temple recommend in Tagalog.  No nose bleeds today!

Day 377 - July 8, 2017 Before driving back to Illinois, we had to stop and see our Koudelka crew in Boise!  Although we didn't have a long visit, it was enough time to share a meal with, see their new home, talk and play games with.  It was a boost to our hearts to hug another family of ours!  Can't wait until we're all together again.       Grandpa playing tick-tock!   Three years means a lot of growth!  Isaac, Lolo, Lola, Claire, Sadie and Liv. God made us family!

   Day 384 - July 14-15, 2017 On Friday Brian flew in to be with us for the weekend.  It was good to see him and can't wait to see our little Gracie.  She and Quinn are the only babies we haven't seen yet.  Brian was great to help around the house getting things back together.  On Saturday morning we went near the Chicago airport to meet with one of our returned missionaries.  The timing didn't work out so I took the car back home to an appointment I had.  Scott and Brian took the train home.  They stopped in the city to remember the sites and sounds of Chicago since it had been three years.  The two of them had a great father-son morning and did a little ministering along the way.  Family and returned missionaries turn out to be our highest priority in this time of life.

Day 263 - Monday, March 20, 2017 Our office staff heeded the call for a lunch time picnic in the mission office for preparation day (it was too hot to eat outside).  Hotdogs, potato salad, chips then topped off with a cookie. The only thing missing were the pickles.  I think their smiles say it all.
